Abstract

The objective of the study was to find out the effectiveness of the methanol fruit extract of N. cadamba on calcium oxalate induced nephrolithiasis in wistar albino rats. Animals were divided into nine groups. Ethylene glycol in drinking water was given to group II - IX for the induction of renal calculi.All the stone forming constituents such as urea, uric acid and creatinine were reduced significantly in the extract treated groups. Calcium, oxalate and phosphorous concentrations in kidney were found to be diminished by the supplementation of extract.
